Chapter 58 Colorful Flowers
Su Chengnan followed Lu Chaofeng to the guest room in the west wing.
Sun Liangyuan lay straight on the bed.
The atmosphere was actually quite weird.
Lu Chaofeng comforted him, "With Mifeng here, as long as he's not dead, he can definitely be saved."
Su Chengnan was surprised: "You have so much confidence in him?"
"Well, Mi Feng is from Penglai Valley, and his medical skills are quite impressive."
"Penglai Valley?" she repeated in a low voice.
This was the first time Su Chengnan heard him mention Penglai Valley on his own initiative. The last time they explored the cliff at night, she had tried to test the relationship between Lu Chaofeng and Penglai Valley, but unfortunately he bit back at her and she didn't find out anything. This time she caught
Opportunity, so I decided to hold on to it.
"Why would the people of Penglai Valley help you?"
"What do you think?" Lu Chaofeng chuckled.
"When my mother was in trouble in the Ningyuan Palace, it seemed that the people of Penglai Valley came to her rescue and extended her life for a few years. Unfortunately, I was too young at the time and I don't remember many things clearly. Please help me solve my doubts, my lord."
When Lu Chaofeng heard her suddenly mention her mother, his eyelids twitched and he became gloomy.
He sat down silently, holding the cup of tea with a sullen face. While doing so, his lips were lightly burned by the hot water, and he threw the cup away in anger.
Bang——
It was the crisp sound of porcelain breaking.
Su Chengnan was startled by his sudden emotion, but she didn't show it on her face. She brushed her skirt, sat down in her seat, and just looked at Lu Chaofeng quietly, waiting for him to continue.
"You...how much do you know about what happened back then?"
"Just a few words, not much."
"A blood feud! How can I not take revenge?" Lu Chaofeng clenched his hands into fists, his eyes were dark and unclear, as if there were huge waves surging.
"Who is the enemy?"
"The clues point to Empress Dowager Xiao's family."
Su Chengnan's heart skipped a beat. Although she was prepared, she still felt complicated after hearing it with her own ears. The original body's mother was killed by accident, but Su Weimin died because of Empress Dowager Xiao! Speaking of which, she also has a grudge against the Queen Mother.
But the first Princess Ningyuan, Lu Chaofeng's mother, was not poisoned at that time. Why did he... have such a strong hatred?
Su Chengnan felt as if her eyes were shrouded in a layer of fog. She hated this feeling of missing information.
"Su Chengnan, have you ever hated anyone?"
"I...don't have any."
"I have. I will use up all my life's strength to cut that man into pieces!" Lu Chaofeng's voice was not loud, but every word he said seemed to carry a thousand pounds of weight.
Su Chengnan suddenly remembered a movie she had watched in theaters. She felt that Lu Chaofeng was very much like the protagonist in the movie, as if every cell in his body was shouting and clamoring, and revenge was his only purpose in living.
She has always been a person who moves forward and never looks back. Life is too precious for her to spend it hating others. She just wants to succeed and have enough say so that she can stay safe for a long time and control everything.
But at this moment, she felt the surging hatred from Lu Chaofeng, and she was suddenly at a loss, as if her recklessness had pierced through the whitewashing he had worked so hard to create.
"Then I wish you success! When you can get your revenge one day, you can live for yourself."
Lu Chaofeng didn't say anything, just looked at her in silence.
Su Chengnan blinked, subconsciously avoiding his gaze, and stroked her hair awkwardly, wondering why Mi Feng hadn't come back yet.
Speak of Cao Cao, here comes Cao Cao!
Mi Feng was striding towards them with a bunch of purple flowers in his hand. Behind him were the servant and the child.
"Prince Lu! Look what I found!"
"What?"
Lu Chaofeng's emotions had returned to calm, and the remains of the teacup that had fallen outside the door had been cleaned up by the servants.
"Here you go, take a closer look!"
"Do you remember what it is? My master taught me that before!"
Mi Feng looked very excited, as if he had found something remarkable and important, and was waiting to be praised.
Su Chengnan turned his body sideways and carefully observed the wild flowers beside Lu Chaofeng. It looks a bit like the modern ginkgo fruit, but the color is different. The flower is brightly colored, like plum.
Lu Chaofeng picked it up, put it under his nose and smelled it, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked in surprise: "Is this a colorful flower?"
"Yes! That's it!"
Su Chengnan was confused and couldn't help but interrupt and ask, "Can you tell me first, what's so special about this colorful flower?"
Lu Chaofeng's previous gloomy mood had been swept away, and he became beaming with joy, "This flower is very useful! Not only can it numb and relieve pain, it can also cause temporary blindness."
"Why does it sound like poison?"
“It’s poison!”
"Ah?" Su Chengnan paused and murmured, "Then why is it given such a nice name, Huacai?"
Mi Feng became excited and jumped directly in front of Su Chengnan, "Girl, let me tell you! If this poison is used well, it can actually save more lives than ordinary medicine. As the old saying goes, medicine is three parts poison."
"So...it has something to do with Sun Liangyuan? Can you wake up Mr. Sun first?"
"Of course it is related!" Mi Feng grabbed the flower on the table again, turned around and walked towards the bed, "If you want him to wake up, this flower is enough."
When Goudan saw Mi Feng pry open his husband's mouth, he quickly broke free, ran to the bed, and pushed Mi Feng away.
"You already said this is poison, and you still want to give it to my husband?"
"Do you really want to save him?"
Mi Fengqi laughed, "Didn't you hear me just now, kid? I told you that poison is better than ordinary medicine if used properly."
"Are you sure my husband will wake up after eating it?"
"I'm sure!"
"Well... okay then."
Goudan took two steps back to give space to Mifeng, then stood obediently at the end of the bed and looked at Sun Liangyuan. Su Chengnan thought that this child was not bad, a good child.
"Hurry up, if you delay for too long, something unexpected might happen."
"I know. I know my limits."
Mi Feng waved his hand without even turning his head, pried open Sun Liangyuan's mouth, and stuffed the whole colorful flower into his mouth.
Everyone looked over with anticipation.
Waiting for Sun Liangyuan to wake up.
Three seconds passed.
Ten seconds passed.
Half an incense stick of time passed.
But the man remained motionless and unresponsive.
Su Chengnan began to panic.
Such talents must not be allowed to get into trouble.
The future of gunpowder is still waiting for Sun Liangyuan to lead the research and development.
Just at this moment!
The person on the bed began to cough madly.
“Cough…cough cough!”
"Hey, where is this old man?"
Sun Liangyuan rubbed his eyes and propped himself up to sit up. He looked carefully and was stunned.
"Lu? Lu Chaofeng? Why aren't you dead yet..."
